Hi,
 
I tried to use a FeatureGroup to group some dependent merge modules
together, but it didn't work, so I would like to check that I was using
the correctly. I have something like the following in a Fragment:

        <DirectoryRef Id="TARGETDIR">
          <Merge Id="Microsoft_VC80_MFC_x86.msm"
SourceFile="!(wix.MergeModBase)Microsoft_VC80_MFC_x86.msm" DiskId="1"
Language="0" />
          <Merge Id="policy_8_0_Microsoft_VC80_MFC_x86.msm"
SourceFile="!(wix.MergeModBase)policy_8_0_Microsoft_VC80_MFC_x86.msm"
DiskId="1" Language="0" />
        </DirectoryRef>
         
        <FeatureGroup Id="Merge.MFC">
          <MergeRef Id="Microsoft_VC80_MFC_x86.msm" />
          <MergeRef Id="policy_8_0_Microsoft_VC80_MFC_x86.msm" />
        </FeatureGroup>

And then in a different Fragment I have:

        <Feature Id="MyFeature"
                 Title="MyFeature"
                 Description="My feature"
                 Level="1"
                 Display="hidden">
        ....
          <FeatureGroupRef Id="Merge.MFC" />
        </Feature>

This all builds fine. However, when I come to install it, I get an error
2711 and the log file reads:

        DEBUG: Error 2711:  The specified Feature name ('Merge.MFC') not
found in Feature Table.
        The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing
this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error
code is 2711. The arguments are: Merge.MFC, , 

Before I enter a bug at Sourceforge, am I using FeatureGroups as
intended?
 
Cheers,
John
